point she was tasered and then becomes unconscious loses her pulse and then is in sudden cardiac death. how can you tell me that using a taser is completely benign especially when we have it on videotape. >> in a statement, the chp says the use of the taser appeared to be within their policy. the woman was later charged with resisting arrest. she is planning to sue the chp. a santa clara county supervisor is under investigation by the district attorney's office. board president george shirakawa is accused of violating state campaign ethics laws and misusing public funds. he is not denying allegation he wasted taxpayer money on fancy meals, resorts and political contributions. >> i don't want you to be distracted by the political lynching that you read today and continue to read about in the print media. i want you to understand that for 50 years, i have been nurtured and raised and lived in peace in this community.

counter birth control without any medical oversight will lead to misuse. some say this artistic exhibit in texas is creepy. >> i think so. it's a public bathroom with completely see-through walls. it's modeled after an italian art exhibit. it's the first of its kind in the united states. and you can pretty much see the crowd hanging outside but they can't see you. >> that's good. >> i think it's really unique and i have been standing outside long enough to know that i could not see in so it wasn't too bad but it was crazy having four men locking in the door.
